So, did you ever think this day would come? The day where you'd miss good ol', dashing Hervey so much that you just couldn't resist pulling him out to play again? 'cos, you know, I've been itching to play.

C'mon, what was it that made you miss me? My undeniable charm? My rugged good looks? The tension and the terror of being a pirate, roaming the high seas for trouble? Well, whatever it is, it don't make any difference to me, as long as I'm out here again!

Now, who else is around here? Let's see what lovely little ladies I can't snag. It's only fun if they're hard to get.

... Yep, I really don't like where this is going.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

I thought you liked adventure!

[Oh c'mon Hervey. This'll be great!]

[fierce_marauder]

... nah, I've got to say, I like drinking and sitting around in a tavern a lot more. It's good for my health, y'know? Looking for sea dragons without any of my pals? Now that's not good for my health.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

Alright, then just lend me your boat and I'll bring it back in one piece.

[fierce_marauder]

You're rich! Can't you take someone else's ship?

And for the record, it's ship. Aaaand it's not like I'm the only one who uses it, girlie. Plus, it's not mine.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

[You really are something, Hervey.]

Fine, but if it turns out they're protecting some huge chest of treasure or something and you weren't there to claim it don't say I didn't invite you.

[fierce_marauder]

Look, little lady, I know what you're trying to do. And, y'know, maybe if I was bored outta' my mind, I'd consider it. But I've just been in a few non-stop wars, and plus, my cap'n wouldn't be too damn pleased if I nicked off with her boat. And crew. As much as everyone likes me, there'd be a mutiny.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

Fine, Fine... but I still say you're missing out on the adventure of a lifetime.

[She'll just have to try and hijack another pirate to go on a adventure with her.]

By the way, I didn't tell you my name yet did I?

[fierce_marauder]

Believe me, I've had enough adventure for two lifetimes. That... makes me sound old.

You sure didn't, little lady.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

I'm Saft.

Nivalis 'Saft' Goldenscale if you want my full name, but everyone just calls me Saft.

[fierce_marauder]

Heh, well Saft it is. Nice t'meet you, I guess.

Hard t'see where the nickname came from, though.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

It's the name someone who cared about me some years ago gave me. He was sort of like my guardian.

[Wait guardian? What about her parents?]
